Looking into Killingdown Farm from Little Green Lane in Croxley Green. Credit: Google Maps A proposal to build 160 new homes at a farm in Croxley Green has been refused. Members of Three Rivers District Council’s planning committee unanimously voted last night to turn down an application to redevelop Killingdown Farm. The application had drawn plenty of opposition with nearly 2,500 people signing a petition to stop the development, while 317 objections were lodged on the council’s planning portal. According to Croxley Green Parish Council, the plans were turned down due to the impact the private development would have on The Green conservation area, as well as on single-track Little Green Lane.

A family were in “absolute disbelief” to discover their dead relative had a stranger buried on top of their loved one days after the funeral. Basheer Meghjee – a 76-year-old semi-retired accountant from Stanmore who also had links to Croxley Green – was laid to rest at Woodcock Hill Cemetery in Rickmansworth after he died of Covid-19 on March 25 last year. On March 27 he was buried at the Muslim section of the cemetery that is leased to the charity BW Foundation and co-managed with Three Rivers District Council. Then just 12 days later after the funeral, his family were unaware that the grave was opened up so that the corpse of an unrelated stranger could share the same grounds.
